Proletarian Chains
from The Tourniquet Hemisphere EP by Ecferus
lyrics
The gatekeepers squeeze
Until all breathing cease
Until the egg cracks whole
And the yolk drips
Others of the ilk clan
No longer worthless
Never has my body
Been with greater purpose
Storm the gates
Trample the guards
A flood of rushing human bodies
Draw the second blood
In the face of revolution
The king becomes weak
The vagrant becomes martyr
Actors in a tragedy
Scheming from your sovereign throne
The mob lacerates your throat
Privileged blood now falls to the ground
Few stories are written
That arrive at the truth
Perception informed by deception
Voices go mute
Make a border
With bodies built of armor
Your weapons have no affect
Your programming I reject
Privileged blood now falls to the ground
Until all breathing cease
Until the egg cracks whole
And the yolk drips
Others of the ilk clan
No longer worthless
Never has my body
Been with greater purpose
Storm the gates
Trample the guards
A flood of rushing human bodies
Draw the second blood
In the face of revolution
The king becomes weak
The vagrant becomes martyr
Actors in a tragedy
Scheming from your sovereign throne
The mob lacerates your throat
Privileged blood now falls to the ground
Few stories are written
That arrive at the truth
Perception informed by deception
Voices go mute
Make a border
With bodies built of armor
Your weapons have no affect
Your programming I reject
Privileged blood now falls to the ground

Söngvar elds og óreiðu
by Misþyrmingsupported by 25 fans who also own “Proletarian Chains”
Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long!

Литоургиiа réussit l'impensable : faire entrer le black metal dans l'église orthodoxe. S'il y a une dimension dramaturgique (indissociable de tout office religieux), Литоургиiа reste profond, solennel et touche le sublime. Après la sortie de cet album a lieu un Grand Schisme et un larcin : Христофор se fait dépouiller de son propre groupe par Барфоломей et Мартин ; tout ce qui reste ici provient de ces deux hérétiques.

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once.....
